Forgiveness
Michelle Broweleit
Professional Christian Counselor, MA, LMHC
Are you stuck? Have you been told you "should" forgive someone and either don't have a desire to or don't know how to get there? Forgiveness isn't about accepting mistreatment by others or being a doormat. It's more than hearing or saying, "I'm sorry." True forgiveness sets the forgiver free regardless of the involvement (or lack of involvement) of the offender. And, if you're the offender, learning how to apologize, repent, and live victoriously without shame and guilt is possible.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
When chosen, forgiveness can be a powerful gift of freedom for yourself. But it is important to remember that forgiveness is not the same as forgetting or condoning harmful experiences. Forgiveness is not required or even recommended for all, but it can be a way to live life on your terms. Compassion for yourself and having experienced your pain is a starting place, and I'm here to support you along your journey.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Forgiveness is not a destination, but a place to visit and spend time. When people are betrayed either by a friend, family member, romantic partner, or co-worker, the hurt is profound. Sometimes, as with someone who has passed, there is no opportunity to gain closure. Forgiveness work is about exploring your feelings, but also learning skills you can use to work through the pain and get to a place of acceptance.
